Probably one of his best books! Been a fan of Denley since one dead sister, and I always look forward to his new releases and this one did not disappoint!
I was a tad worried about the change in scenery and it not being held in Ottawa but he made it work very well. I will admit there were a few somewhat stretched points but it ended up meshing pretty well in the end
Good work and can’t wait to read more about Mike Reiley!
